Excerpted from "Masters of Japanese Movies"             Tadao Sato         's "Desire for Life" is one of Kurosawa Akira's greatest masterpieces. The film seems to put everything Kurosawa's own emotional and technical subject matter into it. In other words, "Desire to Live" is like a work that...

This 70-year-old film makes me feel humbled and appraise it with trepidation. If watching "Seven Samurai" will marvel at the film master's extraordinary video skills, then this earlier "Desire of Life" made me worship the master's profound thoughts and life insight. Apart from great emotion,...

I like it very much. If you don't have life experience, you will definitely not be able to make such a good movie. The layering is distinct, and every shot is beautiful, elegant, and passionate. The description of people who are immersed in work, how they make excuses for themselves, how they look...
